The Elephant Elevator Operator Lyrics - Sesame Street

I go 4-3-2-1 

I go 1-2-3-4 

Then I push a little button 

And I open the door 

Then I close it right away 

'Cause there is no room for more 

I'm the elephant elevator operator 

(He's the elephant elevator operator) 

Hey, I coulda been a salesman at a party goods store 

Or a brave and handsome lifeguard on the New Jersey shore 

But the job that I have chosen is the one I adore 

I'm the elephant elevator operator 

(He's the elephant elevator operator) 

Wanna celebrate the elevator I'm the operator of 

No elevator could be greater 

Hey, it fits me like a glove! 

1-2-3... 

I go 4-3-2-1 

I go 1-2-3-4 

Then I push a little button 

And I open the door 

Then I close it right away 

'Cause there is no room for more 

I'm the elephant elevator operator 

(He's the elephant elevator operator) 

Oh, I coulda been a cute and dashing aviator 

Or I coulda been a jockey but it's kind of a bore 

No, the job that I have chosen offers me so much more 

I'm the elephant elevator operator 

(He's the elephant elevator operator) 

(He goes 4-3-2-1 

He goes 1-2-3-4) 

Then I push this little button and I open the door 

People get all excited when I stop at their floor 

I'm the elephant elevator operator 

(He's the elephant elevator operator) 

I'm the elephant elevator operator 

Ole'!
